F A-L-L the fun just started Fall was certainly an eventful and exciting part of the year. Many festivities occurred such as Halloween, Nevada Day and the Sadie Hawkins dance. Goblins and ghosts, witches and bats, and supernatural heroes were seen at school the day before Halloween vacation. The dressing up was something that everyone could look forward to. Even those who didn ' t participate in this event wished they had because of the creativity many put into their costumes. Halloween night was also a part of the fun. Those who did not leave for an out-of-town trip usually spent the evening with their triends, watching movies, trick or treating, or partying with a whole group of friends. A perfect match, Sophomores Dan Madsen and Teresa DiLoreto get ready to dance al the Sadie Hawkins dance where the music was provided by the Noise Busters from Reno. To add to all of this fall celebration, Nevada Day was celebrated by attending the Nevada Day Parade. The semi- good weather assisted the parade in making the day memorable. The Sadie Hawkins dance also occurred during this period. Tables were turned as girls asked guys to go with them and footed the bilffor the evening, paying for the evening ' s fun. Students who attended dressed in old west garb with everything from levis and plaid shirts to barmaids and Indians. Todd Martin dressed as a hillbilly, the traditional dress for such a dance. Couples often matched their costumes to each other ' s. 18

A s-s-e-m-b-l-i-n-g the classes together As many people piled into the gym, more seemed to pile into their cars as the assembly bell rang. For those who stayed and watched there were games, yelling contests and various tac- tics of entertainment made by the student body. According to some, a good assembly consisted of: lots of entertainment . . . the kind that really grabs your atten- tion, said Junior Bill Lloyd. A good assembly is one where everyone participates, said Foreign Exchange Student Malin Ekwall. For some, assemblies created an incredibly long lunch hour. For everyone, assemblies made the day seem to go by quicker. There was a great amount of thought and planning that went into each assembly to get students involved in par- ticipating. Many actually en- joyed themselves. I felt pretty good after I was out there. It is a chance to have all the focus on you, said Junior Derrik Sharkey. by Michelle Heun Mr. Hunter wasn ' t rooting for himself in the root beer chugging contest. 20
